The most important thing in life is your family. There are days you love them, and others you don’t. But, in the end, they’re the people you always come home to. Sometimes it’s the family you’re born into and sometimes it’s the one you make for yourself.

i want to preface any story with some important information about my close friendships. i am not a person that wears my heart on my sleeve, but i certainly can’t control my facial expressions. i don’t open up easily to people but when you’ve earned my trust we will be the best of pals. i’ve got your back and i’ll have you ROFL to turn your frown upside down. i will be your shoulder to cry on but will just as easily dish out heartfelt advice. let’s face it everyone has an opinion, i simply put mine into perspective – love it or hate it, just appreciate it.
bottom line: i love my friends like brothers/sisters. But really what fun are you if you can’t have a chuckle at your own expense? suck it up buttercup.
